Forecasters call Clay the new neutral of 2027. We call it the colour our gallery already speaks fluently — here it is in three registers: figures, horizons, and folk.

Figures: warmth with a face
Clay is a skin-tone colour, which is why figurative art wears it best. The Terracotta Reclining Woman is the register's anchor — and two quieter companions hold a smaller wall: the woman in the striped outfit with her coffee, and the cubist portrait in green and terracotta. On a clay-pink limewash wall they sit like they were painted there.
The figurative register: two women, one breakfast corner.
Horizons: whole landscapes in the colour
The landscape route paints entire skies in clay: the Desert Moon and the Flying Cranes are a natural bedroom pair — rust linen bedding finishes the thought.
The horizon register: Desert Moon and Flying Cranes over rust linen.
Folk & travel: clay with a pulse
The third register is the loudest: the red Flor de México sacred heart beside the sunlit Mediterranean Archway turns an entry hall into an arrival. Terracotta pot obligatory. For more of the palette’s soft end, the 2027 trends guide puts Clay in context.
The folk register: Flor de México meets an Andalusian corridor.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Clay colour trend?
Clay is an earthy neutral with warm pink undertones that trend forecasters WGSN and Coloro placed at the centre of their 2027 palette — the successor to grey and beige as the default backdrop colour.
What colours go with terracotta and clay walls?
Cream and warm white, deep green, rust and burnt orange all sit naturally with clay. In art, look for prints that carry the same earth pigments — figurative work, desert landscapes, folk reds — and frame them in oak or thin black.
What sizes do these prints come in?
Every design comes in 12 sizes, from A4 up to 70×100 cm, in both centimetre and inch formats — and all designs share the same size system, so any combination hangs together as a coherent set.
Where are the prints produced?
Each order is printed at the studio closest to you — in the EU, the UK, the USA, Canada or Australia — on 200 gsm archival matte paper. Production typically takes 2–5 business days, and all orders come with 30-day returns.
